This new billing options is however going to be rolled out incrementally over “several weeks” to a small group of users. The slow rollout however suggests that it might be several weeks or even months before this billing method is available for all the Netflix users. The best part is the fact that Google Play Store supports gift cards, a great way for young Netflix users who don’t have a debit card or credit card....

PureView Technology Nokia 808 comes with a brand new PureView technology, which sets a new benchmark with imaging technology on smartphones. Many people have always made fun of Nokia N8 as a camera first and a phone next. It looks like Nokia 808 will manage to carry forward that tradition. The Nokia 808 PureView features a 41-megapixel sensor which essentially means that you can zoom in up to 3X without losing any of the details in your shot – and there’s no artificially created pixels in your picture, either....

So, naturally, this has upset those users who were hoping for a not so heavy modified Android version and something closer to the clean, Vanilla version. While this could happen in the future with another device, if you own a Nokia X, X+ or XL and you want to run on clean Android, an ingenious developer has released Vanilla Android 4.1.2 for the Nokia X which is already available for download....

Rohan Shravan, Notion Ink’s CEO has been quite open in revealing the details of Adam tablet, so we did have an idea what to expect from it. Now that the specifications, features and design are made official, let us take a deeper look at why this one might just be the best iPad alternative. Notion Ink Adam – Design Notion Ink has designed Adam to be around 14 mm thick, while being 191 mm wide and 269 mm long....

The Nubia Red Magic 3 features a 6.65-inch Full HD+ HDR AMOLED display with a screen resolution of 2340 × 1080 pixels, a 19.5:9 aspect ratio, and a 90Hz refresh rate. It has a new active liquid-cooling system that comes along with an internal turbofan (claimed by the company to be the world’s first in a smartphone) to keep the heat out of the device and keep it cool during heavy graphics crunching....

As for the specifications, the Nubia Red Magic comes powered with last year’s Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, 8GB of RAM, 128GB of internal storage, and a 3,800mAh battery. On the front, there’s a 6-inch Full HD+ screen with an aspect ratio of 18:9. Like the Black Shark, the Red Magic also has a dedicated hardware key for enabling a high-performance mode. The rear, in addition to the fingerprint sensor, also houses a 24-megapixel f/1....

Xiaomi Mi4i has been a pretty good device at its price range and was marred with only one major shortcoming, that being the 16GB onboard memory sans an external memory card slot. The 32GB variant will be a good option for people who steered away from Mi4i just because of the memory constraints. The company is also tossing in a few deals like free Mi coupon worth Rs 500 on every purchase of Mi4i 16GB and continued discounts on Xiaomi Redmi 2....

There have been several leaks and rumors over the hardware components of OnePlus 2, one of which had claimed that the phone will carry the Snapdragon 810 along with 3GB of RAM. This is in line with that rumor, although OnePlus hasn’t confirmed the RAM present on the smartphone yet. Snapdragon 810 has been in the news for all the wrong reasons, with Samsung infamously putting down the processor while launching Galaxy S6, saying that the processor gets warmer beyond normal....

Although there isn’t any concrete information about what the new smartphone will carry (or its existence itself), the rumor hints at the newer Snapdragon 821 on board and an IPS LCD display in place of AMOLED screen like on the OnePlus 3. Apparently, OnePlus is facing sourcing issues with the AMOLED screens and hence looking at IPS for the OnePlus 3s. We assume they’d possibly go with the same 6GB RAM on the newer variant as well....

In terms of design, the Oppo F11 Pro comes with a 3D gradient glass-finish casing on the back that provides two eye-catching color variants: Aurora Green and Thunder Black. On the front, it has a 6.5-inch Full HD+ panoramic display with a resolution of 2340 x 1080 pixels. There is no notch on the display, and the company manages to do an excellent job of shrinking down the head and chin on display, which it says is possible due to the panoramic display....

Oppo Reno 3 Pro The Reno 3 Pro sports a 6.5-inch curved OLED display with 90Hz refresh rate, in-display fingerprint scanner, and a hole-punch to house the front-facing camera. The display supports HDR10+ and 100% DCI-P3 color gamut and offers a 2400 x 1080 pixels screen resolution, a 20:9 aspect ratio, and a 92.1 percent screen-to-body ratio for an immersive experience.

But thankfully, despite the slow innovation in providing a significant improvement in battery technology, there are companies that are trying to stretch a phone’s battery life. Just earlier this month, we saw Gionee launch the Marathon M5 which comes with a 6,020 mAh battery, a feat it achieved by coupling two cells together. But we now have a company that wants to take this to a whole new level. Oukitel, a Chinese smartphone manufacturer you’ve likely never heard of is catching our attention today for its bold announcement....

What are phone tracker apps? Phone tracker apps are essentially software installed on a device to track its GPS location, calls, messages, and more. These apps are often used by parents to track their kids’ activity and keep a tab on their whereabouts. However, that is just one of the use-cases of a phone tracker app, and you can also put it to use to locate your missing/lost device or to track your family members and friends — the scope of use stretches far beyond these use-cases....

Reason: ‘unbelievably high’ piracy rate, according to the developer, Madfinger Games. This is a sad state of affairs, specially for small developers. Android has grown tremendously over the past two years. In spite of the issues like Fragmentation and monetization, most developers have continued to bring their apps on Google’s platform. You want to know why? Because Android is too big to ignore now But piracy is a major concern now....

Let us examine the evidence – while Poco’s comeback device, the X2, seemed reasonably different from anything in India (it was evidently a rebranded Redmi device that had been launched internationally), the M2 Pro and the M2 have been rather different. The Poco M2 Pro mirrored the Redmi Note 9 Pro and added a slightly different design (in terms of colors) to the mix, while the M2 seems to be the Redmi 9 Prime with more RAM and a faster charger and again in different colors, at a slightly higher price tag than the Prime....

Consequently, you’ll receive a Google Play link for installing it.

Just in case you are unaware, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 and 652 have been among the most popular chips for the leading chipmaker in 2016. With major upgrades over its predecessor, they succeeded in replacing the reigning Mediatek 6752 to become the prime choice in almost all mid-range smartphones. Starting from the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 to the Sony Xperia X Performance, Snapdragon 650 can be seen inside many smartphones....

With the launch of the Snapdragon 780G 5G Mobile Platform today, the Snapdragon 700 series from Qualcomm now has about EIGHT different processors catering to different needs and it can get really confusing to decipher the differences between each of them and how they impact the end-user experience on a smartphone. The newly launched Snapdragon 780G slots right in with the Snapdragon 750G and Snapdragon 765G (at least that’s what one would imagine upon seeing the nomenclature), but Qualcomm’s numbering scheme has been all over the place....

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 850 ACPC aims to solve one of the major pain points of traditional x86 powered systems, well, the battery life. Most of the modern day laptops and ultrabook fail to deliver an impressive battery performance, with a majority of devices dying within 4-5 hours of constant usage. Qualcomm aims to raise this bar, as its new Snapdragon 850 platform will offer up to 25 hours of battery life on a single charge....

But, a major problem with Rapidshare has been that, if you do not have a premium account, you are forced to wait for some time before the actual file is available for download. We had previously seen a Rapidshare hack which involved typing in a javascript to reset the timer count to 0, which still works for many. But now, with RapidShare Countdown Remover Extension for Google Chrome, you can instantly download the files!...
